What did Tony hope would happen when he received first communion? What really happened afterward?

Aleksandr [31]2 years ago

Antonio’s intensified religious doubts illustrate the extent to which he had pegged his hope for moral understanding on a miraculous epiphany during his Communion. His disillusionment indicates the degree to which Antonio is still a child, even if he is an unusually thoughtful and morally curious one. It is naïve, of course, for him to think that the act of receiving Communion might revolutionize his moral understanding of the world, but his power of understanding and belief is still so strong that he is able to convince himself completely. However, his childlike faith takes a blow after his disappointment. After repeated failures to receive God’s explanation of the existence of evil, Antonio even ventures the thought that God himself does not exist. His faith in God is further challenged when Ultima is able to lift the curse on Téllez’s home, an act a priest failed spectacularly to accomplish.

gayaneshka [121]
The function of the infinitive phrase in the sentence <em>To win a marathon is my goal </em>is object of the verb.
It is definitely an object, and it would follow a verb if it were a normal ordering of words in the sentence (My goal is to win a marathon), and since it is not preceded by a preposition, it cannot be object of the preposition, but of a verb.

Identify the correct sentence.
alina1380 [7]
For the first question, item D is correct because you'll need to place a comma before and after parenthetical elements:  "<span>The​ beach, which closes after Labor​ Day, has white sand."

For the second question, item D is correct because commas are only needed for a series of three or more elements; thus, no commas are needed:  "</span><span>I bought a beautiful pitcher and eight glasses."

For the third question, there are no commas needed; thus, item A is the correct sentence:  "</span><span>The music made me sleepy."
</span><span>
For the fourth question, item C is the correct response because commas are needed after subordinate clauses that begin a sentence:  "</span><span>As the band marched across the​ field, the crowd cheered."
</span>
For the fifth question, item D is the correct response because in order to keep from having a run-on sentence a comma is always needed before a conjunction that is connecting two complete sentences: "<span>He works long​ hours, yet he keeps up with his studies."</span>
